I met Freddie a few years back doing a project for FedEx where he worked. While in the office I heard him talking about his Cobra. I've always had an interest in Cobras so I immediately struck up a conversation. It wasn't much longer after that he invited me to Cobra breakfast and met some of the local Cobra guys. I was hooked! Cool cars and great people. Next thing you know it I was sending Cobra pictures that were for sale to him left and right asking for his opinions. Not much longer I purchased my Superformance. I went to the hospital yesterday evening along with two of long time friends Ron Frohs 18 yrs and Brian (Hydramada) 16 yrs. It was very sad. It was obvious these guys were best of friends and have had many memorable times together. I know these guys will be around to support Freddie's wife and twins. I've been taken on extra work for the last few years and as of yesterday I have begun to tell people no more side work. I've rarely had a day off in 3 years and I'm missing spending time with friends and loved ones and that includes having breakfast with my friend Fred Rice. My prayers to him, his family and all that have been touched by him. He will be deeply missed yet his stories will live on.........
